--------------------------------
> Derby 10.8 branch does not build out-of-the-box using Oracle's Java 7 JDK on
> Mac OSX.
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DERBY-5984
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5984
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build tools
> Affects Versions: 10.8.1.2, 10.8.2.2, 10.8.3.0
> Reporter: Rick Hillegas
>
> If I try to build the 10.8 branch using Oracle's Java 7 for Mac OSX, the
> build fails as follows:
> [setJdkProperties] Unrecognized VM vendor: 'Oracle Corporation'
> [setJdkProperties] An attempt to configure the required JDKs will be made,
> but the build may fail.
> [setJdkProperties] In case of problems:
> [setJdkProperties] - consult BUILDING.html and set the required properties
> manually
> [setJdkProperties] - set the property printCompilerProperties to true and
> ask the Derby development community for help
> [setJdkProperties] (please provide the debug output from running ant)
> BUILD FAILED
> /Users/rh161140/derby/branches/10.8/build.xml:241: Don't know how to set
> java15compile.classpath, java16compile.classpath using this environment:
> java.vendor = Oracle Corporation
> java.home =
> /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_09.jdk/Contents/Home/jre
> java.version = 1.7.0_09
> os.name = Mac OS X
> j14lib = null
> j15lib = null
> j16lib = null
> jdkSearchPath = /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_09.jdk/Contents
> Please consult BUILDING.html for instructions on how to set the
> compiler-classpath properties.
> Total time: 1 second
> The following facts about this branch do not seem to me to be consistent:
> 1) The release notes for 10.8.1, 10.8.2, and 10.8.3 state that JDBC 4.1 is a
> supported JDBC level, which implies support for Java 7.
> 2) The release notes for all 3 releases also state that Java SE versions are
> supported from 1.4 on up. Since 10.8.2 and 10.8.3 were released after Java 7
> went live, this implies that those releases support Java 7.
> 3) But you can't build the source distribution of 10.8.3 using Java 7 on a
> major platform.
> I don't think that 10.8.3 is worse than 10.8.2 in this regard so I would not
> flunk the 10.8.3 candidate for this defect. However, we should try to fix
> this problem in case we need to build another 10.8 release candidate.
